I myself don't understand the Caray hate. He's an inoffensive, if bland play-by-play guy who never interjected himself into the game save a few miscues. Maybe it's the fact a grown man calls himself "Chip," but the game 163 backlash was impressive in its speed and completeness.

Now "Chip Caray" is Twittering, and they've nailed his nuances. Fake Chip Caray makes unexplainable factual errors, seems impressed by the most unlikely things, and throws in enough legit-sounding Tweets to make you wonder if this isn't the real thing.
